The use of students' first language (L1) in additional language (L2) instruction has been a recurring theme in language education research.

Jack Pun – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2024
One of the driving forces for a wider adoption of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) in higher education is that students may demonstrate improvements in English language proficiency through an increased English exposure from content learning.

Our study…
